While 2024 brought us the powerful, dynamic energy of the Yang Wood Dragon, 2025 will mark a change of atmosphere. The year of the Yin Wood Snake (Yi Si) will begin on January 29, 2025 and end on February 16, 2026.
The Snake, the sixth animal of the Chinese zodiac, is known for its wisdom, reflection and intuition. It’s a sign that prefers to move forward with strategy rather than haste, seeking harmony and depth. Snakes are mysterious and intelligent.
Yin Wood adds a touch of gentleness and creativity, bringing opportunities for subtle growth and personal development. However, it also invites patience and flexibility, as this energy can be slow to manifest.
So, as the snake is a symbol of wisdom, 2025 will be a time for fulfillment, contemplation and reflection.
2025 is the year of the wood snake, but considering the branches and trunks hidden within the branches (see my article on the Bazi), the snake also contains fire (Yin and Yang), yang metal and yang earth.
This year of the Wooden Snake offers a unique opportunity to quickly shed the “skins” of the past, like a moult, and creatively express what has hitherto remained in the shadows.
Snake’s friendly signs : Rooster, Ox and Monkey.
Conflict sign: The Pig.
Dominant themes: introspection, resilience and slow but lasting evolution.
